Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The SportsZone Bar and Grill runs a beverage program built for volume and variety rather than nuance. Ten taps cover local, domestic and imported beers, with dozens more by bottle or can. The liquor selection is wide-ranging, and Monday happy hour prices four named spirits at $4 to $6. Tuesday's Texas Tuesdays takes 50% off all wine by the glass and discounts Texas beers and liquors. It is a straightforward sports-bar setup where the specials do the heavy lifting.
- What should I order?
- Start with a Lone Star from the Saturday special, or take advantage of Monday happy hour pricing on Jameson or Corralejo at $6. If you are in on a Tuesday, the half-price wine by the glass is the most affordable way to drink wine here.
- When should I go?
- Monday happy hour for the $4 Fireball, $5 RCDs, and $6 Jameson and Corralejo. Tuesday for half-price wine by the glass and Texas beer and liquor specials. Saturday for the $7.50 Lone Star and $10 domestic pitchers.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Specials are the value play: $3 domestic bottles on Mondays, $4 Fireball, $5 RCDs, $6 Jameson and Corralejo, $7.50 Lone Star and $10 domestic pitchers on Saturdays. Outside those windows, expect standard sports-bar pricing across the wide beer and liquor selection.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The daily specials are unusually category-specific. Monday targets spirits, Tuesday takes 50% off wine by the glass and discounts Texas beer and liquor, and Saturday focuses on Lone Star and domestic pitchers. Few bars this size spread their promotions across wine, beer, and spirits so deliberately.
Beverage categories
We only score what a venue sets out to do. Categories a venue doesn't attempt are left unscored rather than penalized.

Beer
Ten taps pour local, domestic and imported beers, with dozens more available by bottle or can.

- — Monday happy hour prices four distinct spirits at $4 to $6, covering flavored whiskey, a house pour, Irish whiskey, and tequila.
